IT Infrastructure

The University aims to strengthen its leadership among Russian universities by the use of cutting edge technologies in educational and scientific purposes.

SUSU will develop information technologies in the following key areas:

• Establishing fully functional Intranet
• Introducing comprehensive Learning management system
• Scaling up of universal access-to-knowledge tool - Personal Virtual Desktop (PVD)
• Maintaining free access to supercomputers for all students

SUSU Personal Virtual Desktop system leverages the facilities of the high-performance computing cluster. This system provides all students and staff with access to the data cloud, including access to specialised licensed software, and the University's educational services, as well as remote access to research laboratories.

Currently SUSU's Intranet system Univeris enables direct communication between the administration and staff. In particular, Univeris integrates faculty’s profiles and allow to track scientometric data to monitor their progress toward achieving KPIs. Besides that, automated project management system is used for complex research projects. The SUSU Admissions Office uses the Intranet to receive applications online, to monitor ratings, and to inform applicants of admissions decisions.
